    “Good grief, why aren’t you helping?!”

    “Eh, he’s just a Captain. That’s less important than a President. Q.Y.D.”

    “Ah, that’s ‘Q.E.D.’, sir. It’s an initialism for ‘Quod Erat Demonstrandum’.”

    “Is that some sort of fancy dog breed?”

    “No, it’s Latin, sir.”

    “Lassie, you say? I told you it was a dog breed!”

    “…Yes, sir.”

        Yeah, but these days he can hardly speak even partial words without a bucket to catch the drool, and it’s damn hard to hang a gag on that. Call it creative license.

      This reads like if Lloyd Bridges was playing the president in a Hot Shots parody of current events.

    Tell me his vacant stare doesn’t resemble Neal Breen’s more and more every day.

          A guy passed out during a press conference a couple days ago. Dr Oz rushed to help him, RFK jr dipped like the cops showed up and he was holding, and Trump woke up from his nap looked over for a second and then turned and stood like this.

    Much like the crew in this shot, you’re head’s in the right place.

      What region are you in?

      Others have posted the source image below. But in this case it’s Trump on the bridge of the Enterprise D, looking at the camera, while Crusher and others check on Picard, who is lying on the floor. I’m pretty sure the source scene is from The Inner Light.

        The UK - there was a badly thought out “protect children from the Internet” policy from the government, which has resulted in quite a lot of websites simply blocking the UK entirely - including wherever this image was hosted (probably imgur?).

    Am I doing it right?

    No.

    Post your image directly on Lemmy instead of linking to a corporate site who are under no obligation to keep your pic available unless you’re paying a subscription to them, and who already stated deleting old images.

    Also no because it shows up as “Content not viewable in your region” in my country because some stupid executive got cross about some stupid legislation that isn’t about SFW images anyway.

    Lemmy isn’t subject to this kind of politicians vs corporations bullshit. Put it on Lemmy.

      When people post directly to lemmy, I can’t see it. At best I can see it, but not expand it, actually read it. Windows PC, Firefox, 40" TV, nothing crazy. If lemmy can’t handle such simple requests?

        40" TV

        nothing crazy

        Yeah, right. That 3 foot by 2.5 foot monitor is a totally normal setup that pretty much everyone uses for their social media. /s

        I find that when I tap or click in an image in Lemmy it expands, and if I click again or long tap, it opens in another browser window filling the screen. Maybe try the duck duck go browser. Works for me on my windows laptop.
